A yacht was left high and dry after running aground off the Anglesey coast.

The vessel became perilously perched on rocks near Pilots Cove on Llanddwyn Island on Sunday afternoon.

Pictures from the scene showed the occupants of the boat speaking with somebody on a speed boat after they managed to get trapped on the rocks.

A coastguard spokesman said they were called at about 4.55pm by the boat’s occupants, who were advised that the best course of action was to wait on board until water levels rose again and the boat refloated.
